Awesome guitar! I recieved this guitar today and switched out the factory strings with light nanoweb elixirs and the sound of this guitar is great. Love the feel of it as well, very easy to play. Good for for strumming and finger picking as well. I was torn between choosing between this guitar and the taylor 114ce and I dont regret my decision one bit. Thanks zZounds!
